Table 4.
Lambda estimated by maximum likelihood (λ ML) represents phylogenetic dependence level varying from 0 (total phylogenetic independence) to 1 (total phylogenetic dependence). Results of comparison between models with estimated λ ML and models with λ = 0 and λ = 1 are given in the two last columns with P values (P). Based on model significance and parsimony, model 2 is retained as best model (highlighted in grey)
